Abbas Proposes Canceling Oslo Accords

Palestinian Authority head, Mahmoud Abbas, proposed cancelling the Oslo Accords with Israel at a weekend meeting of the PA leadership, a senior member of the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) told AFP on Tuesday.

PLO Executive Committee member Wassel Abu Yusef said Abbas raised the idea of "cancelling the Oslo agreement as well as the associated economic and security arrangements," at the meeting on Saturday and Sunday.

Abu Yusef said that "members of the Palestinian leadership had mixed opinions on the issue, and it was decided to postpone any decision until their next meeting," due to be held after Abbas's return from the UN General Assembly later this month.

Abu Yusef added that the PA leadership also discussed holding presidential and parliamentary elections "in the light of Hamas's refusal to complete Palestinian reconciliation."

In other words, instead of merely violating Oslo left and right, let's pretend we were never obligated to abide by it, which is close enough to the truth anyway. Go ahead. Cancel it. The IDF will be waiting.

Exactly what I was thinking when I saw the headline/article. It’s the next exploding cigar for the left.

These 9th Century knuckledraggers shouldn't be surprised if Israel decides to cancel one or two understandings as well.

If the Oslo accords are cancelled, does that mean that the PLO must go back to Tunisia?

You mean, like, keeping Abbas’ office out of the cross-hairs, especially when he’s inside it?
